Dung beetles typically die when they can no longer find food sources, such as animal waste, which are essential for their survival and reproduction. Environmental factors like temperature extremes, habitat loss, and pesticide exposure can also contribute to their decline. Observing a decrease in their activity or presence in a specific area may indicate they are facing threats to their survival. Additionally, the lifespan of adult dung beetles varies by species, generally ranging from a few months to a couple of years.
No... The 'Dung Bettle' Does NOT!
Decomposer
Dung beetles and stag beetles differ primarily in their diet and appearance. Dung beetles primarily feed on animal feces, which they use for nutrition and as breeding material, while stag beetles are known for their distinctively large mandibles and primarily feed on decaying wood and plant matter. Additionally, stag beetles are often larger and have more pronounced sexual dimorphism, with males exhibiting larger jaws for combat over mates. In contrast, dung beetles are typically smaller and less ornate.
A dung beetle is a consumer, specifically a decomposer. It feeds on feces, breaking down organic matter and recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem. This process helps maintain soil health and supports plant growth, but dung beetles do not produce their own food like plants do.
Don't die. THE END.
